PREFACE. 




HIS is not the first edition of the Book of 
Live Stock Champions, and we hope it 
will, not be the last. 
The intention is now to make it an Annual, 
issuing one book each year. This represents the 
issue of the year 1912, and may be regarded as 
Volume No. 1, because it contains the best sub- 
jects of all former editions. 

If there are any famous animals conspicur usly 
absent from this volume, future editions will make 
up the deficiency. 

The publisher will not rest until all improved 
breeds are represented by their most meritorious 
and famous animals.
